GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. THIS MARADMIN IS PUBLISHED TO HIGHLIGHT UPCOMING
HIGH VOLUME USAGE PERIODS FOR THE AUTOMATED PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
SYSTEM (A-PES), AND FUTURE PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS TO A-PES.
2. DUE TO THE CLOSEOUT OF STAFF SERGEANT FITNESS REPORTS AND THE
ANTICIPATED HIGH VOLUME OF A-PES USAGE, MMSB-30 ADVISES AND REQUIRES THE
FOLLOWING ACTIONS:
A. REPORTING OFFICIALS SHOULD BE AWARE OF DEGRADED SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
BETWEEN 1000-1930 EST, MONDAY-FRIDAY FOR THE NEXT 45 DAYS. THIS IS THE HIGH
VOLUME PERIOD.
B. REPORTING OFFICIALS SHOULD COMPLETE ALL OUTSTANDING REPORTS IN
THEIR QUEUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO DECREASE A-PES SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS. THE MORE REPORTS THERE ARE FOR ACTION BY THE REPORTING OFFICIAL, THE LONGER THE "IN PROGRESS" TAB WILL TAKE TO LOAD, WHICH IN TURN SLOWS DOWN THE ENTIRE SYSTEM.
C. MMSB-30 WILL:
1) IMPROVE FITREP PREPARATION RESPONSE TIME BY REDUCING THE SIZE
OF THE DATABASE. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY ELIMINATING ALL MARINE
REPORTED ON WORKSHEETS DATING BACK TWO YEARS SINCE INITIATION.
2) REPLACE AND UPGRADE ALL A-PES SERVERS BY JUNE 2009 IN ORDER TO
HANDLE FUTURE HIGH DEMAND PERIODS.
3. FOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATION QUESTIONS CALL DSN 278/COMM (703)
784-3993/3448/3437. EMAIL INQUIRIES MAY BE SUBMITTED VIA THE MMSB
